Devil Incarnation

-
Hello there! !
Today is really a long and strenuous day. I have been sitting in office since morning staring at the green monitor lost in endless reflection. Thought I should scrawl something just to placate the deep sense of monotony which is gleefully eating me away.
People say "An idle brain is the devil's workshop". How factual our elders were!!!!!
The devil goaded me to just tell Raj to buzz off.Oh God I won't be able to express the deep sense of satisfaction. Poor guy! He must have got the shock of his life. Although it looks like he has recovered fast as I could see two angry smileys pop up in my monitor.
The same devil provoked me again to ping him back and irritate him to hell. At this moment he must be tearing his hair.
I now turned my attention to Deepali who is happily writing a testimonial for me.This should have somehow pacified me but guess the roots of evil have implanted itself with vengeance. She finished her task awaiting my approval but all I gave her was a snort! A hrmph! Now all she is giving me is a cold stare and verbally lashing me with all the English she has learnt during her GRE days. You should see the way she is sighing! Merilin Monroe would have got a complex beyond words.
Will get back with more of my devilish adventures...Stay tuned....

Hey I am back again......

In some way the devil in me was placid for a while. However it got revived by the end of today morning.
So the devil is on the prowl for more victims…..Who else can be a better victim then my cordial and cute colleague in office.
Poor thing!!! She came to me for advice on some work which I had already done in the past.
All I told her was "GET LOST" and "I DON’T KNOW".
And just imagine! She took my words at face value and seriously went out for guess what?..........

"A CUP OF COFFEE".

“Name game” – on a lighter note!

Working in an organization with multi-lingual, multi-national people can be exciting. You get an opportunity to interact and sometimes meet people from around the world.  However it can sometimes be intimidating as well, especially if people cannot pronounce your name! Your first thought on reading this must be – ' WHAT? How can it be intimidating(scary) if people cannot pronounce your name?    Don’t we have better reasons to be worried about? ' Well…well. Let’s see if you still think the same, after reading through…… I as any other homo sapient , grew up thinking my parents have given me a simple name. I mean, how difficult can it be to pronounce my name ‘ Anindita Dutta’ - pronounced as “ AA-NIN-DI-TA   DA’T-TA ”. However, as easy as it may sound, looks like it is not so.   Just the other day, There was crisis at work and I needed to join a bridge ASAP. Click…click...Click… I dial the Conference no. and join in,...

It seems like an era that I have penned down any of the countless thoughts circulating in my head. I am not sure why in the middle of the night I got this sudden urge to sit and just write something in order to vent out all these feelings and relieve myself. It reminded me of Professor Dumbledore who used to take out and store a portion of his reminiscence aside so that he can analyse it later. “What is it that is disturbing me?” This question keeps nagging me again and again. I have gone about my daily chores as usual. Nothing unusual has happened in the day or in fact the past week as well, which should disturb me to the core. Then what is it? Then suddenly like a revelation the thoughts go back to around 10 days. I and my friend had gone down for shopping to a busy hub in Pune .We were on a spending mood and got anything and everything that we could lay our hands on. After around 4 hours of shopping like freaks, we finally decided to rejuvenate ourselves with sugarcane juice w...

Uncertainty!!

My life requires some cataloging as things have been relatively hectic for the past 2 months. I had left my prior organization in search of greener pastures and the journey since then from the cocoon has been fabulous. My expertise (although 30 months cannot be the judging criteria for understanding a technology) is mainframes and suddenly I find myself in a completely different environment with just COBOL familiarity as my aide. Trainings were given to make this MAINFRAME individual get tailored to UNIX and after a week was left loose to experiment. To top it all, the application is cosmic and complex. The pressure is high; the tasks are demanding and they keep me engaged for the whole day and even invade my dreams to a great extent. However, when I look back, I realize that although I was in my comfort zone with great colleagues and friends in my previous organization but this change was necessary not only for my growth and development but also to remove the monotony in work and my l...
